Someday very soon there may be a $200 million quarterback in the NFL.
Maybe it will be Patrick Mahomes. Just before the Chiefs' playoff loss to the Patriots in mid-January, ESPN's Adam Schefter floated the idea of Mahomes earning a $200 million contract extension when he becomes eligible for negotiations next offseason.
Maybe it will be Dak Prescott. Unlike Mahomes, Prescott is in the final year of his rookie contract and up for renegotiation right now. K.D. Drummond of Cowboys Wire wrote a detailed explanation last week of why and how Prescott could become the NFL's first $200 million man.
